Background: To evaluate the association between pre/post-procedural high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level and hs-CRP difference, and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) or new diffusion-weighted MRI lesions after carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS). Methods: In this study, conducted in 2016 in Shiraz (Iran), patients who underwent diagnostic angiography and CAS...

BACKGROUND The cellular apoptosis susceptibility (CAS) protein is regarded as a proliferation-associated protein that associates with tumour proliferation as it associates with microtubule and functions in the mitotic spindle checkpoint. However, there is no any actual experimental study showing CAS (or CSE1 and CSE1L) can increase the proliferation of cancer cells. Previous pathological study ...

CAS is a docking protein, which was shown to act as a mechanosensor in focal adhesions. The unique assembly of structural domains in CAS is important for its function as a mechanosensor. The tension within focal adhesions is transmitted to a stretchable substrate domain of CAS by focal adhesion-targeting of SH3 and CCH domain of CAS, which anchor the CAS protein in focal adhesions. Mechanistic ...

"Etude etiologique de la circulation ra.pide iutra-rena-le"  Le but de l'angiographle renale n'est pas '.seu­lement le controle anatomique de l'organe, une etude physiologique (Hemodynamique) doit toujours etre prise en consideration.  Le temps normal de la circulation intra-renale selon les differents auteurs varie entre 6 a 8, 8 a 10 et 10 a 12 secondes, mais le temps moyen est de 6 a 8 seco...

a novel zinc oxide - agar nanocomposite was successfully synthesized using zinc chloride as a precursor. the nanocomposite was prepared using a domestic microwave oven. the prepared nanocomposites have been characterized by fourier transform infrared (ftir) spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (sem) and uv- visible spectroscopy. the crystalline properties...

Résumé Les poumons reçoivent la totalité du drainage veineux du corps expliquant la grande fréquence des métastases pleuro-pulmonaires de plusieurs cancers. L'objectif était d'étudier les manifestations radio-cliniques des métastases pleuro-pulmonaires des cancers extra-thoraciques. Nous rapportons une étude rétrospective de patients porteurs de métastase pleuro-pulmonaire colligés dans notre s...
